| Most eye-opening upgrade and what you learned Changing listening position- from far field to near field. Everything fell in place and parallax removed. All I had to do was try- at length. Try even closer than the famous sit-at-apex-of-equilateral-triangle rule, it may work for you. | |
| What is stopping the ultimate? It has to be the recording phase,like many has responded. Why every thing is fine (almost) when I play exceptionally well recorded CDs (e.g Mapleshade, Reference, Chesky) and falls apart when I play ' Commercial ' titles? | |
| Got a melody running around in your head? The " utopia" from goldfrapp. thx to the other thread! | |
| portishead, goldfrapp, looking for more ...... Goldfrapp, ummm yes. I thought no one here will appreciate her music ( except may be tireguy) but I was wrong. I am not big fan of Bjork, but she has similar vocals and singing style. Try the new highly rated "Vesperine". By the way I am gonna ask... | |
| Mark Levinson's Guide to Better Sex Kim Cattrall is Mark Levinson's wife? Who would have thought? I bet the book have various toys description with ML electronics. No brainer! | |
| Rock and Roll System Aroc, I am using two classe CA-400's (one each for main and surround pair-very effortless) and one CAV-150 (for center). The REL has its own amp, only 100W albeit very efficient. | |
| Component with most effect on soundstage/imaging? I believe that assuming your speakers are properly positioned, away from front and back wall, pre-amp is highly responsible to define sound stage. Different cable effect sound stage by varying tonal balance (too forward or laid back) resulting in ... | |
| Rock and Roll System Ditto for Dunlavy V's. Although I switch-in the REL stadium subwoofer set at 46 HZ for the club scene in 20x14-12*12 L shaped room. I used Classe Amplification and oh yes, I use Stereo surround mode for on my SSP-50 to direct sound to the rear dun... | |
| Where do you sit? I use a beach chair, with two cushions to get tweeter to ear level. Not so confortable but verrrry transperent. I am still looking for that perfect comfortable chair which resembles my beach chair. I have thought about trying out a Ricarro with a ... | |
| Are more expensive speakers better? Usually, but not always. The post should read ... bigger and expensive speakers better? For one major reason; they create life-like sound and images: tonal, timber, size, space, dynamics and more ( you can't describe it other than say that you're ... | |
| Monitors vs Full Range Seantaylor99's points well noted. I guess one of the answer to Justlisten question will be to have limited budget as a reason to choose betweem monitors and full-range floor standers. Since he mentioned his Duntechs, I just agreed his original sta... | |
| CLASSE - Great amps or highly flawed? Kevziek, May this one set-up you listened is flawed. What speakers, cables and other electronics they are paired with, not to mention room. What is/are your other source/s of criticism? Stereophile? It may be that at the time the reviews came out ... | |
| Monitors vs Full Range There is no replacement for Full range (down to 20 Hz) Phase,time and pulse coherent speakers, no matter how good the monitors are! In my opinion. My Dunlavy V's stops me to even consider smaller alternative! | |
| CLASSE - Great amps or highly flawed? I agree with Perfecimage. Ca-400, once their top of the line would change your mind. Apparently difference at different price points, the sound signature does change, as it should.But not to the extent that Kevziek describes. Although I have to ag... |
